In recent years many countries of the world have b

4、een faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity There is evidence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the worker1 s I ife more enjoyable, it does not act

5、ua11y make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then variety is not an important factor. Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot ea

6、sily be given in the modern factory with its comp Ii cated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of cho i ce may be important, there is usual ly very little that can be done to create it. Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he

7、is making. In most factories the worker sees only one smal I part of the product. Some car factor i es are now exper iment i ngwi th having many smal I production I ines rather than a large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not on

8、ly is degree of worker contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about. To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity The workers themselves certainly think this important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so bo

9、ring. Money just lets them en joy their spare time more. A simi lar argument may exp lain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they wi 11 neither want more money, nor wi 11 shorter working hours be so important to them.Which of these possibl

10、e factors Ieading to greater productivity is not trueA. To make jobs more varied.B. To give the worker freedom to do his job in his own way.C. Degree of work contribution.D. Demands for longer working hours.4. Faces, I ike fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to re

11、cognize peopIe Even a skilled writer probably could not describe al I the features that make one face different from another.Yet a very young child-or even an animal, such as a pigeon-can learn to recognize faces, we al I take this ability for granted. We also tel I peop I e apart by how they behave

12、. When we ta I k about someone* s persona I i ty, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others. Like the human face, human personality is very comp I ex. But describing someone s personality in words is somewhat easier than descri

13、bing his face. If you were asked to describe what is a nice face Iooked I ike, you probably would have a d i f f i cu 111 i me do i ng so. But if you were asked to describe a nice person, you m i ght beg i n to th i nk about someone who was k i ndf cons i derate, f r i end I y, warm, and so forth. T

14、here are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels, acts. Gordon Al I port, an American psychologist, found nearly 18, 000 English words characterizing differences in people s behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing, his personality. Bookworms, cons

15、ervatives, mi Iitary types-peopIe are described with such terms. PeopIe have always tried to type each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villain s （环人）or the hero s role. In fact the words Mperson and personality come from the Latin persona, m

16、eaning mask. Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easily tel I the good, guy from the bad guy because the two types differ in appearances as well as in actions.By using the examp I e of f ingerpr ints, the author tells us that.A. people can learn to recognize faces B

17、. people have different personalities C. people have difficulty in describing the features of fingerprints D. people differ from each other in facial features5. Do you ever automat ica11y say MGod bless you when someone sneezes Did you ever cross your fingers when making a wish Most peopIe who do th

18、ese things never think about why they do them. They just do them. But there is a reason. Both acts are meant to insure good luck. They are little superstitions that have come down to us from an ear I ier time, when everybody be I i eved i n good and evi I spirits. And even i n our modern wor I d, wh

19、en men are travel ing to the moon, we are still practicing some of these anc i ent habits in our daily I ives. In anc i ent times, men be I ieved that the soul Iived in the head. Every time someone sneezed, he was risking the danger of dislodging that soul and blowing it out the nose into the outsid

20、e world. So, as insurance against a lost soul, peopIe would say God bless you to be sure that God would catch the soul and return it to its rightfuI owner. Some peopIe today toss a bit of salt over their left shoulder if they happen to spill any at the dinner table. This practice once had a serious

21、purpose. In an ear Iier time, men be Ii eved that evi I spirits always stood on their left side and good sprits on the right. So any time they spilled some of the precious stuff, they would throw a bit of it over their left shoulder to keep away the evi I spirits. Since the eviI spirits stood on the

22、 left, and the good spirits on the right, the right side was considered the lucky side Of the body. Putting your best foot forward meant starting out on the lucky side, with your right foot first. That was a guarantee of good luck at whatever you were about to do. We st i 11 speak of putting your be

23、st foot forward, H a I though we don t always start walking with the right foot.The main idea of the passage is that .A. people still believe in superstitionsB. there are reasons behind many superstitionsC. people today don t have superstitionsD. superstitions are foolish6. Speaker A: d love to come

24、 to your barbecue on Saturday but my cousin is arriving from California that day. Speaker B: That, s no problem. The more the merrier. 19 m glad .A. I can hold such a barbecue for youB. your cousin will be arriving from California thenC. we finally have a chance to get togetherD. that you re too bus

25、y to come to my barbecue7.

Wh

26、en I finished the story, Lenin jumped from his chair and started to pace the floor, () , deep in thought.A. with his head bendingB. his head bendingC. his head bentD. bending his head9. Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules of grammar,

27、 and learn to write in the new language more quickly than others. They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so what makes languages so much easier for them to learn Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners we may discover a few of the techniques that make

28、language learning easier for them. First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or the teacher. They discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for the

29、mselves. They try to learn from their mistakes. Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, they do not wait for a chance to use the language. Instead they look for such a chance. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear and to say strange t

30、hings. They are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communication is difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word. Finally, successful language learners are learne

31、rs with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it is easy to practice using the language regularly becau

32、se they want to learn it.The best learners of languages .A. are the most inte11igent students in the classB. are the best at memorizing long vocabulary IistsC. have the best Ianguage learning techniquesD. are the best at mastering rules of grammar10. Walter offered us a lift when he was leaving the

33、office, but our work (),we declined the offer.A. not being finishedB. had not been finishedC. not having been finishedD. was not finished11.The second box seems exact Iy the same as the first one ().A. except for that it is twice as heavyB. except that it is as twice as heavyC. except it is twice as

34、 heavyD. except that it is twice as heavy12. In recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity There is evidence to

35、 suggest that while variety certainly makes the worker s life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then variety is not an important factor. Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is importan

36、t and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it

37、. Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now experimentingwith having many small production lines rather than a large one, so that each worker contri

To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity The workers themselves certainly think this imp

41、s Did you ever cross your fingers when making a wish Most people who do these things never think about why they do them. They just do them. But there is a reason. Both acts are meant to insure good luck. They are little superstitions that have come down to us from an earlier time, when everybody bel

42、ieved in good and evil spirits. And even in our modern world, when men are traveling to the moon, we are still practicing some of these ancient habits in our daily lives. In ancient times, men believed that the soul lived in the head. Every time someone sneezed, he was risking the danger of dislodgi

43、ng that soul and blowing it out the nose into the outside world. So, as insurance against a lost soul, people would say "；God bless you"； to be sure that God would catch the soul and return it to its rightful owner. Some people today toss a bit of salt over their left shoulder if they happen
